A Christian Home Lyrics

A Christian Home - Living Stones Quartet

...

O give us homes built firm upon the Saviour,

Where Christ is Head, and Counselor and Guide

Where ev'ry child is taught His love and favour

And gives his heart to Christ the Crucified

How sweet to know that though his footsteps waver

His faithful Lord is walking by his side

O give us homes with godly fathers mothers

Who always place their hope and trust in Him

Whose tender patience turmoil never bothers

Whose calm and courage trouble cannot dim

A home where each finds joy in serving others

And love still shines tho' days be dark and grim

O give us homes where Christ is Lord and Master

The Bible read the precious hymns still sung

Where pray'r comes first in peace or in disaster

And praise is natural speech to ev'ry tongue

Where mountains move before a faith that's vaster

And Christ sufficient is for old and young

O Lord our God our homes are Thine forever

We trust to Thee their problems toil and care

Their bonds of love no enemy can sever

If Thou art always Lord and Master there

Be Thou the center of our least endeavour

Be Thou our guest our hearts and homes to share
